Where the rules change
Sub-areas and phases
No sub-area distinctions verified from a published source. Requires title / association confirmation.
Development history
A community built around shared features
Council account of development history
Council dates development to 1995 and describes a 1,300-acre community. Its mandate follows selected shared features created during development; that history does not establish the age or condition of an individual home.
Housing & households
Detached homes, row housing and apartments
2021 Census of Canada
The City's 2021 census profile records 52% of occupied dwellings as detached houses, 16% as row houses and 22% as apartments in buildings below five storeys. It reports 78% owner households and 22% renter households. Figures are rounded and describe 2021, not current listings.
The same profile places 62% of occupied homes in the 2001-2010 construction period. Use the actual building's records for age, renovations and maintenance planning.
Parks & recreation
Public parks and separate program admission
Posted park information reviewed September 2026
Inverness Gazebo, Elgin Hill and Promenade Park combine municipal park ownership with Council-managed features. Park booking may require the City; ask which organization controls your intended use.
Pond-side paths offer neighbourhood walking routes. Water access is prohibited at the two storm ponds.
Schools & enrollment
Check school assignment by address
McKenzie Towne School reports opening on January 7, 2010. The presence of a neighbourhood school does not establish eligibility for a particular address, grade or program. Confirm designation and any overflow arrangements directly with the school board before relying on a listing.
Getting around
Test the journey from the actual home
2021 Census commuting context
In the City's 2021 commuting table, 83% of the measured workers drove and 5% used public transit. This historical snapshot is not today's service frequency. Check the route, transfers and walking connection for the departure time you will actually use.
